3.2 TIME SETUP
The time information supplied by the GPS satellites is in Universal Time Coordinates (UTC
or Greenwich England Mean Time). To change the CP590 to read the correct time, first you
must know the correct offset for your Time Zone, and then whether or not you are observing
Daylight Saving time. For example on the West coast of the United States or Pacific
Standard Time the offset needed would be –08:00 or –07:00 for Daylight Saving time,
Eastern Standard Time –05:00 or –04:00 for Daylight Saving time.
